It is in the works. It is actually quite trivial. I have done office, dtp, effects, midi, mixers, and synths so far. I can include things that are not on the ubuntu repos and if the user adds the PPA that goes with them they will work after that. For example, I have included non-mixer in the mixers, but it doesn't show up right now. However if the user adds the kxstudio ppa, it will. Please send me a list of applications it might be useful to add this way. (I already will add kritta) I need the exact name of the package. Anyone else can send package names too please. -- Len Ovens www.OvenWerks.net -- Ubuntu-Studio-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
